Cfrp Cables: The Future Material For Cable Structures

This paper outlines the advantages of using carbon fibre reinforced polymer cables in larger span structures such as a suspen dome, apart from their usage in bridge works which is popular. The material is analyzed and the result is compared with the traditional steel material. Based on the result, the paper describes how carbon fibre reinforced polymer creates the possibilities for a future development in cable structures such as a suspen dome which is a roof system
